OUR STORY
SUNFLY started with a simple question: Why is so much of the sunflower seed’s potential still being overlooked?
Our founder, Dmitri and his co-founder Mark, spent more than a decade working with sunflower seeds - understanding the ingredient, the industry and what this incredibly versatile seed could become.
In 2020, we brought together food scientists, researchers and industry expertise with one ambition: to unlock the potential of sunflower seeds and turn them into delicious, nutritious everyday foods.
Years of research and development followed. We experimented with flavour, texture, nutrition and production until we developed our own unique process for transforming sunflower seeds into products people genuinely love.
In 2024, we launched our first range of SUNFLY sunflower seed spreads.
And the market responded.
Today, SUNFLY products are sold in more than 1,000 stores across 12 countries, working with leading retailers including Tesco, Auchan, Carrefour, S Group, Kesko, Amazon and Panda Retail.
But spreads were only the beginning.
In 2026, we launched SUNFLY Dates - premium Medjool dates filled with our sunflower seed butter - taking sunflower into an entirely new snacking category.
Our ambition is bigger than building another food brand. We’re building a new food category around sunflower seeds.

If you've noticed your baked goods turning green when using sunflower seeds as an ingredient, don't worry! Sunflower seeds contain a natural antioxidant called chlorogenic acid, which reacts with baking powder and baking soda. To prevent the green color, try reducing the baking soda and/or powder by 1/3 or add a teaspoon of lemon juice.
